Cyberpoetry: Clearnet

The Internet or cyberspace needs you to trust it, even though embarrassing vulnerabilities will reveal your lack of wit. Tech savvy users, ciphered chatting and risk calculus, reading the terms of service, as it could be the catalyst... To consented digital surveillance, data-mining and analytical buffoonery, who can you choose to be if you are truly not free? Cameras are everywhere, in the sky and in our pocket, accessed through transmission control protocol sockets. The clear net is the internet minus the deep and the dark monikers, you can get high off your own supply of virtual encrypted liquors. Download an app from any store and your identity may be stolen, by pirates with bad intentions, a wolf in sheeps’ clothing. A sheep in wolves clothing, is software maliciously exploited, with he intent of hurting developers, hoping everyone will avoid it. Now here comes the patches, updates and recommended use, just like substance abuse, addictive qualities will be produced.
